I just picked up this beauty on eBay. Will be added to my 500 variant collection! The seller stated in the auction "make me an offer, I will probably take it". I decided to try him out. He had it BIN for $79.95 so I offered $30.00. He took it! I will post more photos once I get it, before & after my cleanup!

Harry;
I like the adjustable ringer, and that heavy ended line cords is a plus also.

Nice looking phone, Harry.  According to Paul's site, the 5304 is a party line phone with the B2A ringer (4 conductor) and 101B Induction coil.  They would be wired much like, if not exactly like the 354 wall phones.  I see it has the 5M dial.  Nice buy.

Thanks guys, I thought it was a nice one overall, the line cord is a plus in my book! And it has a nice looking F handset, most are fairly dull and hard to get shiny again!

30 bucks is a good buy for that phone!  It's real clean.
